The following letter from. Col, N. B.

the Springfield (o.,) Farm and Fire
side. This paper has the enormous
circulation Of 10000 copies:
In looking through q newspaper

South since thenl Ten or twelve years
ago one could not write Of the South
and predict one half what has come 70

eyed visionary or an aTrant liar Now
the most rosy delineatoFs Of the obsti
nate skeptics Of ten years ago, The
boom 10 the South Is past all beliet,
it's progress beyond the ken Of the most
watchful observer. The number Of
railroads chartered and being con-
structed, the towns laid of and build
ing, the iron and coal mines opening,
the furnaces projecting and building,
the number and variety Of manptac-
tories going up--all these are perfectly
bewiIdaring. Aud then the way people
are docking in from the West ! Atlaat,
this STATE, Louisiana, has got start,

1t is the duty of every person who
has used Boschee's German Syrup to
let its wonderful qualities be known
to their friends in curing Gonsump-
tion, severe Coughs, Group, Asthma,
Pneumonia, and in fact all throat and
lung diseases. No person can use it
without immediate relief. Three doses
will relieve any case, and we consider
it The duty of all Druggists to recon-
mend it to the poor, dying consump-
tive, at least to try one bottle, as
$4,000 dozen bottles were sold last
year, and no one case where it failed
was reported. Such a medicine as the
German Syrup cannot be too.Widely
known, Ask your druggist about it
Sample bottles to try, sold at 10 cents,
Regular size, rs cents. Sold by all
Druggists and Dealers, in the United
States and Canada.

M0fehouse Sentinel.
The factious and silly opposition of
certain class of the press Of this State
to the Administration of Gov. McEnery,
reminds us forcibly Of the seeker after
religion at an old time camp meeting.
When the "spirit' moved him he would
yell with all his might and main, "Tal-
Iy.hoi Tally.ho r. Upon being renon-
strated with by good old brother as
TO the meaning and appropriateness Of
this remarkable utterance, he replied
that it didn't mean anything but that
it was bully word to sound on, Thus
it is with those immaculates who are
forever yelling Ring ! aud Houston.
These are meaningless expressions,
but they are good to sound on. No
valid charge can be brought against
GOV. McRnery, and his opponents re-
sorts to veriest kind of clap-trap and
nonsense simply to detraet attention
from the impending struggle. Let
McEnery stand or fall on his own mer'
it's. Judge of bis official character, BY
his executive career, and place that in
contrast with the weak and puerile
administration of Nichols. The"Hous'
ton Ring" Is the Tally-ho of the oppo'
sition, and they forget that Johnny
Fitzpatrick, and his lay ont are the
warnest advocates of the Nichols re-
form movement. If elected, Nichols
would be In the most corrupt and I'M

Novel Writing.

In writing his novels Scott never
seemed to have the slightest idea what
was going to happen, or how it was to
happen, though, rs a matter of fact, it
generally did happen. deligtfully if
irregnlarly enough. Dickens is suppos-
ed to have been very careful about his
schemes, though if any man can ex-
plain to me what the plot of Little
Dorritt' is; why Mr.. Tulkinghovn chose
in that entirely irrational and nnproiit-
able manner to prosecute L@W Ded-
'ock; why anything, nc mtaIer what, as
it actually does happen in Hard
Times" happens; and what the sense of
ESteIla'S general conduct is in ''Great
Expectations. he will do more than |
have ever been able to do for myself,
or than any one else has been able to
do for me. Thackeray's sins Gf in nov
81 writing il be not bias phemy to say
that Thackeray sinned at ally are gross,
palpable, and for the matter of that,
confessed by the sinner. In particular,
if any one will try TO arrange the chro-
nology of the various Pendennis books,
and if his hair does not turn white in
the process, he may be guaranteed
against any necessity for peruke ar.s-
ing from similarly hopeless intellectual al
labor.
OF course these things are usually
,ery small faults, except in cases such
as that where, out of sheer good nature
and Difference to old friends. Scott
spolt the finale of 'St Remains Well
cases in which the carelessness or
wilful indifference to keeping the house
in order really hurts the story. But
hey are faults, and think that on the
whole the tendency in average novel
writing during the last twenty years
has been to correct them. Again, the
average writing of said novels is de-
cidedly better, and generally speaking.

Boys who sigh to dash madly across
the plains or follow the cowpath TO
fame do not know of the dangers and
desolation such life involves. There
are two classes of cowboys in the West
viz. the working cowboy and the lay
figure cowboy. The latter remains in
town and rolls cigarettes, which he
smokes fercely through his nose. He
talks learnedly of cattle brands, cor
rails, round-ups. "cavvyards," ranges,
bands, punches and herds. but doesn't
really know range COW from a Texas
steer
The genuine cowboy is not always
beautiful, but he is conversant with his
business, knows every brand in his dis
trict at least and who owns it; is brave
where bravery is most needed, that is,
in the discharge of his duty. To stand
watch all night in blizzard and hold
band Of restless. believing cattle from
stampeding, to ride all the next day
half asleep in his saddle, to fall occa-
sionally from his pony when the latter
makes mistake and steps in a prairie
dog village, or to have collar-bone
broken when fifty miles from phys-
clan, are some of the features of cow
boy life which the boys who run away
from school to cross the Missouri do
not consider.
Moreover, it would be well If every
boy in America or elsewhere would
write in his own hat with blue pencil
that there is no rose-bordered road to
SUCCESS and that even the man who is
born beautiful and marries rich has to
fight his way. The great West does
not so sorely need pretty men with
buckskin clothes as it does good citi-
zcns who are willing to work. Wher-
ever the sun shines or grass grows and
water runs, the young man who will
give a good days work for fair days
wages will surely be promoted as he
deserves it. 1t may not be funny, but
it is the never-dying truth that indus
try. integrity and perseverance are
mighty good substitutes for symmetry,
genius and hair.-BiU Nye, IN NeO
